The female patient in the picture, carries a fixed prosthesis supported by implants and own teeth in the lower arcade. We did this operation in September 2001. In the upper arcade instead, she carries a mobile prosthesis ( a skeletal ). That has mobilised the 2 pillars on which it was anchored. We propose the replacement of the 9 missing teeth with 9 fixed teeth on 6 implants.
